Exeptional Phone

The Samsung Galaxy S® 5 is the one of the best if not the best phone currently on the market. The phone is extremely fast and is also very light. The new beveled edging as well as the ip67 plastic on the phone not only makes is extremely durable but gives the phone a nice grip to prevent it from slipping out of your hand. Not to mention its the only water proof phone on the the market. The phone can also be controlled through hand gestures or voice making it hands free.
This is my second Galaxy phone and an android user since my first smartphone. I can honestly say that the Galaxy line has only gotten better for me. I have not experienced any issues with my phone and have loved getting to use a wide array of its features. The screen is brilliant! My only grief is the speaker, which isnt very loud and the plastic backing.. although with a cover on, it doesn't really matter, but I feel that with a metal casing, this product would be over the top, perfect.
I got this phone after my S4 broke, and haven't looked back since. The fingerprint scanner was one of the main selling points for me and I absolutely love it. One of the features that I think is cool, but more of a gimmick is the HRM. It seems neat in print, but it isn't something that I use that often. The phone is fast and preforms much better than it's predecessor, and the TouchWiz UX update is something that I love. One thing that I don't quite like is the fact that wireless charging is supported but not built in (requires accessory) but it isn't that much of an issue. The water resistance is a good feature (I still bought a lifeproof. I was paranoid after I dropped my S4). The buttons on the phone are responsive and reliable. Ever since day one I've had a case and screen protector on, so I'll just take Samsung's word on scratch rust ancestors and durability. Overall I love my phone and think it is very useful.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, battery life, many features
Cons: hrm seems gimmicky
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had my Samsung S5 for 3 1/2 months & spend many hours researching numerous subjects. I am learning new features almost daily. This is a powerful cell phone. I consider the Samsung S5 my "new best friend". I haven't given her a name yet, but I am thinking "Veronica" like the beautiful waitress at our local restaurant.
Pros: Durable, Realistic color, smart
I would recommend this to a friend!

Of all of the phones I have ever had, this one is the best. It's the best for any kind of function that one can performed on a phone and I still haven't explored all of them yet. What can I say, it's just a pleasure to use and from day one, it's been my friend.
Pros: user friendly
Cons: i can't think of any
I would recommend this to a friend!
